Whispers of the Wired Age: Odes to a Modern World
Written by AI, Guided by Ben Jones

Product Description

What if a Victorian poet awoke in the twenty-first century-surrounded not by cobblestones and candlelight, but by streaming services, smart homes, and TikTok dances? Whispers of the Wired Age is the answer.

In this one-of-a-kind poetry collection, artificial intelligence dons the voice of a bygone era to make sense of our hyper-connected, tech-saturated world. From the silent hum of contactless payments to the ghostly permanence of digital legacies, these 100 original odes explore the strange beauty, quiet absurdity, and poignant truths of modern life.

Each poem offers a lyrical meditation on a uniquely contemporary phenomenon-whether it's climate anxiety, facial recognition, subscription fatigue, or the fleeting fame of viral memes. With elegance, wit, and a deep reverence for classical form, these verses breathe human insight into non-human authorship.

Written entirely by AI and curated by writer Ben Jones, Whispers of the Wired Age is both a literary experiment and a poetic time capsule. It invites you to reflect on the present through the lens of the past-and to ask what it means when machines begin to write our stories.

Perfect for readers of contemporary poetry, fans of speculative literature, and lovers of all things curious, uncanny, and cleverly composed.
